Suehiro Rika finishing whetstone #5000 has been well received for a long time for its smooth sharpening feel. Use this fine grit stone after sharpening with coarse and medium grit to remove any scratches on the surface or to simply realign a slightly dull edge for a razor-sharp finish. Using a fine-grit stone to polish your edge can actually help to make carbon steel knives more rustproof. Suehiro Rika is especially suitable for high-carbon steel knives and is recommended for beginners as well as professionals who want a one-rank higher finish.
